State Fair Physics

QuestionAnswer
objects hit and stick to each other inelastic collision
objects hit and bounce off each other elastic collision
"An object in motion, remains in motion until acted on by a net force" 1st law of motion
Force = mass x acceleration 2nd law of motion
"For every force, there is an equal and opposite force" 3rd law of motion
states that momentum is conserved in all collisions law of conservation of momentum
states that energy is conserved in a closed system law of conservation of energy
energy based on object moving Kinetic Energy (KE)
energy based on object's position (height) Potential Energy (PE)
9.8 m/s/s acceleration due to gravity (ag) on Earth
distance / time speed
displacement / time velocity
sum of PE and KE Mechanical Energy (ME)
anything that has been launched or thrown projectile
describes motion of a projectile parabolic
sum of all of the forces acting on an object net force
SI unit for energy Joules
this is needed to do work energy
acceleration of objects moving in a circular path centripetal

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
